Absolutely mint inside and out. No stone chips. Lovely K roar from behind. Short tail roof (no leaks). Hard top included. Just been C serviced with new cam belt. 13.5k miles.

He's going to do some phoning around to get a good p/ex price on my Clio and/or my folk's MG TF 160 that they're struggling to sell privately (obv. reasons ;))

So should I buy it? I'm asking the audience Millionnaire-style :)
 
apparently im the only person who doesnt like the lotus. I worry that if i was spending that much money on a car and i genuinly had to ask some people to help me decide, perhaps it *might*- not be the right one!

But, you drove it dude, and if it ticked your boxes you should definately get it! :D
 
I dont know what it is about Elise' I like the way they look, they're very cool looking, but its just to plain inside..

If you want it dude.. go for it :)
 
Hi there

Only you can decide if you buy it or not? Did you like the drive, did it make you grin when you pressed the loud pedal and were throwing it around corners etc. If so your very close to making a decision to buy the car. But on the negative side can you live driving around in such a bear car that has no creature comforts at all? Over time will you find the instrusive road noise does your head in, how about the winter as with no insulation its gonna be a chilly place to be.

If its your daily can you live with it on a daily basis or would the bareness of the car eventually get you down when your sat in traffic or pottering around town.
 
Biased opinion but of course you should buy it (although not that one as it's hugely overpriced for an 02 car - I know a guy who bought an 05 111S for the same price)

If you can stretch a few grand more you could get a 111R though. If you haven't driven one try to pop to your local dealer and test drive one (with the stage 2 exhaust if possible). I wanted the 111S until I drove the R and then my mind was made up!!
 
With respect this is entirely the wrong place to be asking for such advice, you should be asking on SELOC, not here.
 
Voted no, imo the front is too upgly to even look at, never mind driving it, but then again I have some odd opinions, so ignore this if you want :p .
Also overpriced imo.
